— About me —

Note: If you’re trying to reach me about a PCWorld or TechHive matter, please send me a message at ben_patterson at idg dot com.

I help people with their technology—from their iPhones and Android phones to their PCs and Facebook privacy settings, you name it—all through clear, friendly and conversational editorial. My product reviews, features, how-tos and buying guides leave readers feeling confident, empowered, and eager to share what they’ve learned.

As a writer, I’ve developed, researched and written hundreds of articles and features for such notable brands as PCWorld, PCMag.com, TIME, CNET, Yahoo!, Men’s Fitness, Mobile Magazine, and more. As an editor, I’ve led teams of writers and built editorial departments from scratch.

I’m always open to new writing opportunities for a brand that’s passionate about its readers and dedicated to high-quality editorial. Please message me if you think we’d be a good match.
